Photo Flight Tools is a mission planning platform for professional aerial photographers and licensed pilots. Plan flights, calculate safe altitudes, coordinate crews, manage targets, and stay synchronized with Google Calendar and Drive — all in one place.
Integrated with Google Workspace. Photo Flight Tools connects to your Google Calendar to sync mission events and crew invites, and to Google Drive for KMZ/KML file access. Your data stays in your Google account — we never store it on our servers.
